Level 99 Villainous Daughter

27 The thing called the magic flute

It's almost until the hordes of demons flood the city of Dorknes. In a barrier where monsters can never enter, the duke speaks gently.

"There's still a bit more to come out of the monster. In the meantime, let's talk about another reason I came here."

The first reason the Duke came to Dorknes was because he wanted to call on monsters in low-risk areas. It doesn't happen very often, but it's really annoying.

The duke laughs happily, seeing me bitter. This person is usually bad.

"Another is my favorite reason."

"Oh, please speak quickly."

"Hahaha, don't look with such a scary face. The cute face is ruined."

"Ah?"

So I came with Putun. I think he was a patient.

That barrier is a barrier that refuse darkness. Only I was played in the church and others were able to pass by. The barrier is only valid for demons in general, dark magic, and humans with dark attributes.

In other words, physical attacks that do not use my body pass.

Pick up an affordable stone from your feet and aim for the duke's face and throw your best.

Smoke rises with the sound of Zugan. I guess the Duke died.

"... I thought I would die"

Fortunately or unfortunately, he was alive. The stones turned red due to friction with the air, so I thought I did it.

"Huh? Why are you alive?"

"By expanding the barrier to a small extent, physical defenses ... didn't you explain it first?"

"I'm sorry, I didn't hear the impact of reuniting with Yuki-chan."

"... I'm no longer."

Isn't this barrier too strong? As expected, I have only recognized them as rivals. I feel proud here.

When he sniffs, the duke moans holding his head.

"Well, was it wrong to look at this guy?"

"I don't know, but please tell us why you came here."

As I urge, the duke begins to speak of a significant decrease in tension.

"Did you explain the role of the duke?-I wondered, what will happen to the kingdom in the future? If the nobles who rebel against the royal family move apart, there will always be confusion that has never occurred before. So I looked for a successor to the Duke's family. ''

Superficially opposed to the royal family, ambitious men looking for someone to bring together a full of extremist aristocrats? I don't think anyone can do that, and nobody can do it.

… I have a bad feeling. You are asked to continue the story you do not want to hear.

"That's where you saw your eyes. The Dorknes may turn into dukes, and may be the noble family that pairs with the royal family."

"No, it's fine. You see, I'm an Earl.

"Marquise? They're just royal dogs. They don't have the power to cross the royal family."

It doesn't exist for me either. Isn't he buying me too much? It is wrong to ask me for a force other than force. I'm sad to say it myself.

"I can't do it. I'm just an ordinary person with a high level."

"The power of the level is too overwhelming, and you might be hiding it, but you're going to be a lot of heads off?"

Oh, I'm misunderstood. As a result of being mistaken for the better in the usual way, things are going in the wrong direction.

And the role of the duke is a long-term, descendant generation. My children are not always high level ... not. Before Patrick was about to reach level 99, it took a lot of mental power to affirm.

"... I wouldn't do that if I could take the place of the Duke."

"Yumiera Dorknes, you have an attachment to the city you see behind, right?"

"That's well."

"It must have been different in the past. It didn't matter what the city was, but when I realized it, it became irreplaceable. The same goes for the country.

"I'm different from you. I don't have that emotion."

"... I'll change the way I attack"

There he breaks the word and smiles the worst of today. I'm going to do a pretty bad thing.

Duke Hillrose says with a grin as if broken.

"A monster horde will hit your precious city from now on! Naturally, a strong lord will defend the city ... so I will break the barrier. I will surely be killed by the demon!"

The Duke declares suicide happily. What does it mean? I haven't seen the whole idea yet. I don't really want to die, I'm not tied to it.

"Yumiera Dorknes will never forget, I have died because you lacked your strength. You will kill me!"

"Now !?"

"The physical abilities that are far away from humans, the magic of darkness that specializes in wide-area extermination, are certainly powerful. But they also have weaknesses. As with the light attributes, combat with others, and the base defense ability. It's low, isn't it good at fighting while protecting something? If one defense goal is enough, two places are impossible? ”

He is trying to commit suicide on his own. If you can help, shout loudly to help.

It seems to be doing something very stupid, but I felt it was a more effective hand than I thought. I am really doing my research. Is it because of this that Patrick and Liu were separated?

If I had to kill the Duke, I would regret my whole life. Perhaps, as the Duke thought, he would try to control the disturbing elements on the line of opposition to the royal family.

... Well, that was when I left here and headed for city defense.

"Is it okay? Coming soon? Monsters are coming in large numbers?"

"I'm here. The moment I break the barrier, I'll stun you and bring you to a safe place. Then ... well, I'll think later."

"What are you saying? Which is more important, me or the people?"

"Of course I'm a resident of the city.

I look back and point beyond the sky. There was a growing shadow.

Although she doesn't want to admit, Liu is a monster in the classification, so she is interested in the whistle of the monster call. I believed that such a loud noise would definitely come.

He rushed after blowing the whistle, and that Patrick said. I have to claim my innocence before getting angry.

The distance was still far away, but Patrick's voice reached his ear. He does dexterity using wind magic.

"Yumiela, can you hear me? What happened?"

"The Duke of Hillrose blew the whistle of a monster. It's not a big guy that the merchant brought before, isn't he?

"... I understand. What should I do?"

What ’s in the meantime? I am a self-defense kid, but he is a little suspicious of this tense situation.

As the Duke points out, I'm not good at defending a stronghold, so ask Patrick who is too fit for the city.

"I ask for the city, and I think it's time for demons to appear."

"I understand. Liu, I'm off first."

At the same time that voice was heard in the magical wind, Patrick jumped off from Liu, who was flying over the city. He's not good at high places, but he does it there. I also need to help.

Pick up the stick that had been thrown to the ground and throw it to Patrick. With a few steps to the run, the cane thrown in the manner of a javelin throw straight to him.

The cane fluttering in the wind, bending and sticking into Patrick's abdomen, descending brilliantly.

"Sorry!"

The staff has arrived, but it's unclear if an apology has arrived.

Patrick, who was descending while decelerating by the wind, falls freely while holding his stomach. Oh, I crashed without slowing down. A cane is pierced by Patrick on the outskirts of the city.

Duke's plunge into the back.

"Isn't that really bad?"

"Oh, I'm up. Patrick is as expected."

"Is he the eldest son of the frontier? The dragon is a threat, but what happens when he joins?"

What is the Duke saying? Did you call Liu instead of calling Patrick to the Royal City?

If so, it's rude. No one can do better than him in the current situation.

"Did you misunderstand? Patrick is strong, second only to me."

Patrick, who stood up while fluttering, pulled out his cane and raised it high.

I can't hear his voice, but his magic looked good. You have to be this far to see that whole picture.

"What is that ..."

An improvised wall is built in the city of Dorknes without the wall. It was too high and thick to be improvised, and Patrick showed the entire city with mud walls.

To the stunned Duke, I speak proudly while doing other things.

"That's the end of the monster measures. Let's continue the duel with Yukai."
